Meet Michelle

Barbela Design is a contemporary luxury jewelry line based in the heart of New York City. It was created by a family owned jewelry company that found its origin in Belgium dating back to the 1930’s. With their existing knowledge of the jewelry industry and under the direction of their daughter, Michelle, Barbela Design was born.

Michelle noticed there was a need for affordable yet stylish pieces of jewelry designed for young professional women. With that in mind, she decided to leave her corporate job to create a diamond and gold jewelry line. Her goal is to design jewelry pieces that can become staples in any woman’s jewelry box. Each piece emphasizes the perfect balance between urban and classic design elements.

We take great pride that all of our products are made by our team of skilled metal smiths earning living wage in New York City’s diamond district. View the entire Barbela Design Collection.
